Re: Nightmare over. Lam gone!

Can’t disagree with what you’ve said Dave. How do you know hardaker was a cheap option to replace Sam? Sam was gone, we had Escare (who I imagine would still be here if not for Lam) and bought French....... I imagine Hardaker was seen as a potentially utility player and not the fullback replacement...

Re: Referee for Thursday

It made no difference to the result but there is a reason why we have lost every match that Hicks has refereed this season. He's not 'bent' or anything like that but he obviously came onto the field last night with a clear view of how he was going to ref the match. Leeds could hold down as much as ...

Re: Pace

Bought mine and also managed to get my own seats. Does anyone know if the car park pass for the East stand car park is still valid (car park 3)? It should be it is a ‘season’ pass. does that mean season tickets will be valid for the game? No you need to purchase the ticket the reference to season p...
